Senior Functional Consultant – Tax Technology
The highlights:
Innovate Tax Functional Consultants are the lifeblood of our business. Over the past few years, our Functional Consultants have worked on delivering indirect tax implementations across the major ERPs, including Oracle, SAP and Workday, using both native and external tax engines, at some of the world’s biggest and well-known brands (take a look at our website) across over 150 countries.
That’s why we’ve decided to open the doors, to invite applications from experienced professionals to join our highly regarded and valued team.
What you’ll do
• You’ll work within an experienced and world-class team, sharing knowledge and ideas, always looking to make our good even better.
• Learn the Innovate Tax implementation and project methodology; we always look to ‘Innovate’ and futureproof even if it means taking the harder route.
• You’ll deliver indirect tax solutions for some huge brands, providing them with the best tax solutions – globally.
• There is ALWAYS the opportunity here to branch out into other technologies or build on your current skills – you create your own path at Innovate Tax.
• We work globally, so when we say branch out, we also mean see new places. Plenty of opportunities to travel.
• Work on all stages of a project from pre-sales to design, build, testing and go live – even support. With our unique business setup, you have direct access to some of the leading tax technologists and we encourage open communications and plenty of solutionising of problems together, no question is a stupid question!
• The work we do genuinely makes an impact. Automation always being our target focus, Tax Teams see us as their pathway to compliance, which means you’ll be working with some forward thinking and positive clients looking to make indirect tax technology better.
Who you are
We’re looking for candidates that love what they do and thrive on a challenge. You’ll appreciate the benefits of working within a collaborative team and having access to an experienced Indirect Tax Solution Architect (for when you need one), where you’ll be able to express your ideas and use your voice to ‘Make your good better’ (one of the Innovate Tax core values).
You’ll have experience as:
• An Oracle Financials Functional Consultant in Oracle R12 EBS or Oracle Cloud working with modules that include AP, AR, PO, PA and OM, but Oracle Tax Engine experience is not necessary (we teach you that).
• Or as an SAP FICO consultant (S4/Hana).
• Or you will be a Functional Consultant with working experience of the financial function of other ERP platforms such as NetSuite’s MS Dynamics 365 or Workday.
• And preferably worked on at least 1 full lifecycle implementation project covering ERP Financials function for that ERP system.
• Ideally (but not required), you will have had exposure to the gloriously complex world of indirect tax or worked with tax products like Vertex.
Have you had exposure to TR OneSource, Avalara or Sovos? Although this is not necessary as we will train you on how to set up our award-winning Indirect Tax Solutions within the ERPs/tax engines.
At Innovate Tax, our most successful consultants have a curious mind and are eager to learn; are able to work in an environment where you can make a mistake and learn from it and not hide from it; have good communication skills, both written and verbal; and can work collaboratively within a team but also independently.
